In electrical engineering, capacitive sensing (sometimes capacitance sensing) is a technology, based on capacitive coupling, that can detect and measure anything that is conductive or has a dielectric different from air.
There are some practical steps you can try to ease hot flashes and/or night sweats: 1  Sleep in a cool room. 2  Dress in layers, which can be removed at the start of a hot flash. 3  Have a drink of cold water or juice when you feel a hot flash coming on. 4  Use sheets and clothing that let your skin âbreathe.â. 5  Donât smoke.
However, the condition is usually treatable. Normal sweating helps to keep the body temperature steady in hot weather, during a high temperature (fever), or when exercising. Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) means that you sweat much more than normal. Even when you are not hot, anxious, or exercising, you make a lot of sweat. Excessive sweating is classified into three types (as follows). It is important to know which type you have, as the causes and treatments are very different.
